Chick-fil-Ayyy
As if we couldn’t get enough of Chick-fil-A, the company has just announced the launch of its meal kits, available in August. Anyone living in Atlanta, Georgia will have the opportunity to buy meal kits from 150 restaurants in the area. The kits will include fresh, pre-measured ingredients and a whole lot of flavor.

Life Hack Of The Day: Cut Edition
If you’re outdoors far from shelter and get a bad cut, look for a spider web. They can seal the wound quickly until you find medical attention.
Power Up
You’re Too Sweet
Want to make your fave baked goods but don’t want to trash your health? We’ve got you. Supplement with unprocessed, pure maple syrup or buckwheat honey, which are rich in antioxidants, to get your sugar fix and avoid overloading on the refined stuff. [Swirled]
In The Lime Of Fire
There’s nothing more refreshing than a beer or mixed drink with a squeeze of lime on a hot day, right? Well, while we love the citrus, it doesn’t love our skin in the sun. Some people are affected by “lime disease” (not to be confused with lyme disease), which causes a skin reaction when you consume lime while being exposed to UVA rays. If you notice a rash forming, get inside and toss the drink! [Swirled]
What’s Your Type?
Major news: There are more personality types than just A and B. Type Cs have the same organized and hardworking qualities as Type As but don’t rush to get the job done in the same way. Type Ds are afraid of rejection and can suffer from anxiety. Doesn’t it sound so fun to be a Type D?! 😅 [Well+Good]
Get It Done
(Net)Work It Girl
If you’re looking for your next big gig but can’t (or hate to) network in person, you’re not counted out just yet. Amp up your presence from afar by polishing your LinkedIn profile and reaching out to potential connections, as well as finding a professional mentor who can give you pointers. [Swirled]
Give Us Some Credit
You know you can gain points and airline perks by using your credit card, but there’s so much more you could score with select cards. Wells Fargo’s Cash Wise Visa® card, for example, covers $600 worth of phone insurance if you pay your cell phone bill using the card. [Money Under 30]
I Feel For You
Need to get ahead at work? While you might be thinking about how to elevate yourself to get noticed for that next big promotion, practice empathy in the workplace instead. Not only will the skill make you more of a team player, but highlighting the accomplishments of your teammates or offering an ear to workplace issues shows signs of leadership. [mindbodygreen]
Savor Each Bite
Nu-Tell ‘Em!
Nutella lovers, congregate at New Jersey’s Brownstone Pancake Factory, where you can find the most insane Nutella latte of all time. The mug is coated with Nutella and wafers, then in goes the cappuccino and a few pumps of hazelnut syrup for that full effect. Then, a staff member adds a cupcake to the rim of the mug for good measure. [Swirled]
Recipe Of The Day
Forget the microwave during lunchtime this week and make meals that don’t require any reheating. A roasted sweet potato salad offers all of the good nutrients you need with those carbs you love. Plus, it’s super easy to make and tastes great chilled. So many wins. [Swirled]
Pack Your Bags
Have You Nerd The News?
Ready to nerd out on your next big adventure? Head to NYC’s Midtown Comics for some “Avengers” vibes or to New Zealand to live among the set of “Lord of the Rings.” Better yet, book a set tour or walk along the Te Araroa Trail, which looks like the journey from the Shire to Gondor. [Swirled]
Hot Dog!
If you can’t get enough dogs in your life, it’s time to head to Canada. The Yamnuska Wolfdog Sanctuary in Cochrane, Alberta offers an up-close-and-personal experience with the wolfdogs. And you can get a tour of the sanctuary starting at just $24. [Swirled]
Deal Of The Day
Travel alert: You can fly roundtrip from a number of U.S. cities like Atlanta, Boston, Phoenix, NYC, Miami and Seattle to Mexican destination cities like Cancun, Cabo and Puerto Vallarta starting at just $196. Yep, that’s both ways. Nope, this is not a drill. [The Points Guy]
